Random new game thought

[owlmoose]

T had been looking for a game for the two of us to play together, so after casting about reviews and his own to-do list, he bought Diablo 3, which arrived yesterday. (Our last two games were interesting indie titles, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture and Broken Age, which will probably merit their own posts at some point.) We haven't gotten very far in, but it's promising so far, as a fairly basic hack-and-slash Western RPG. But one thing I do want to note: the first NPC we came across is voiced by Greg Ellis, in exactly the same voice he uses for Cullen, and it's rather disorienting. (I think half the other men in the village may also be voiced by Greg Ellis, but he makes them sound different enough that it bothers me less.) Curse you, small stable of AAA game voice actors!
